THE FRANKIE MANNING FOUNDATION
www.frankiemann...
The Vision ("In our wildest dreams...")
The Lindy Hop will be danced all over the world to live big band music. Everywhere that Lindy Hop is danced, on the dance floors and off, people of diverse backgrounds will treat each other with respect and warmth. The history of Frankie Manning and the originators of the Lindy Hop at the Savoy Ballroom will be well known to dancers and non-dancers everywhere.
The Mission
The mission of the Frankie Manning Foundation is to carry on the work and the spirit of Frankie Manning in spreading the joy of Lindy Hop, danced to big band swing music, throughout the world.
The Values
In accordance with Manning's own values, and those of the Savoy Ballroom where the dance got its start, the fund seeks to promote projects which are grounded in unity and collaboration, and which enable people of all different backgrounds to participate in this joyous dance.

Love this…. I love seeing Frankie I did know him I had the pleasure of taking a couple of his classes…. James Barton and his dancing absolutely have left me spellbound and stunned. Oh my God he was so fabulous thank you thank you today is New Year’s Eve. It’s still 2023. It’s 3:51 AM Soon to be 2024 what great New Year’s Eve gift this is I don’t celebrate, but I am celebrating Frankie and James A toast to both of you.

This is Chester Whitmore. He is imitating James Barton, from a scene in After Seben. The music is “shake that thing.”

This video shows the remarkable CHESTER WHITMORE recreating the dancing in the 1929 film short After Seben. Chester is introduced by Chazz Young, Frankie Manning's son. As part of 2009 live performance at Frankie95, Chazz pretends he is introducing the original film. For that reason he identifies the dancer as "James Barton," an actor who appeared in the original film. Make no mistake, the amazing dancer in this video is none other than Chester Whitmore!

In Malcolm X you see Spike Lee is yelled at by some woman on the dancefloor, "Hey Shorty". Right after that the camera turns to a male dancer doing the "Shorty George". I asked Frankie Manning (who did the choreography for the film) if he had done that on purpose, but he said no.

OK so I just looked at this again I thought how could James Barton be dancing like this? He would be so much older Frankie I went back and looked at it again and again and oh my God it’s Chester it’s Chester… well now I’m celebrating all three of you guys. Happy new year what a great gift how much I love the movie After Seben .. That’s how I found this video. I was revisiting the movie which I often do.

Is that Chester Whitmore? Sure moves like him, plus Chester is sort of a dance historian for a lot of the Savoy legendaries. He's pretty darn incredible himself too; humble about his skill. Such a nice fella if you see him out n about in LA definitely ask him for a dance!

Wondering who puts up the text explanations underneath the video I’d love to get in touch with them and ask them to add Chester Whitmore’s name as the performer who says he’s James Barton

Why isn't the dancer's name in the intro? The man deserves some credit.

I think it's Chester Whitmore. I could be wrong, if it's not he's very similar.
